Who May Be Liable for a Car Accident?

Liability typically depends on who acted negligently and how that negligence caused the crash.

In many cases, more than one party may share fault.

California follows a comparative fault system, which means fault can be shared and damages may be reduced by a percentage.

What Your Claim May Include

Depending on the severity of the injuries and the available insurance coverage, compensation may include:

• Medical expenses and future medical care
• Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity

If the crash caused a fatal injury, surviving family members may pursue a wrongful death claim.
